Former X Factor New Zealand judges Natalia Killsand her hubby Willy Moon were both fired from the reality show for bullying contestant Joe Irvine in very harsh ways — none of their comments were there to help and improve Joe in the future…

They were just straight up hurtful.

But the two have finally each released separate apology statements! Though, it does sound like they released them because they're tired of the bad publicity — instead of truly seeing the error in their ways.

Natalia took to Twitterlast Wednesday night with a caption that said "at last! I am relieved that I'm finally able to break the silence… xoxo" before revealing a statement that read:

Former X Factor New Zealand judges Natalia Killsand Willy Moon were recently booted off the show for some troubling comments they made to one of the contestants recently that many thought crossed the line into bullying territory.

But the married couple are apparently not believing they did anything really all that wrong and Kills has said as much! And her latest comments seem to want to put all of this WAY behind her!
